Ever since he became President, Barack Obama has displayed a disturbingly consistent pattern of behavior:
Ignoring the desires of the base that elected him in favor of consistently failed attempts at bi-partisan “co-operation” with Republicans, and – here’s the kicker – OTHER actors who are most definitely not part of that base, above all big corporations and industries who have made no secret of their opposition to even his weakest efforts at “change.”
The examples are too numerous to mention, but in passing we can at least reference the nonsensical “debate” about health “care” “reform” that was finally passed without any help at all from his supposed “friends across the aisle.”
Despite the total lack of Republican help – if not to say the often violent oppositionary rhetoric of its most active element, the Tea Party gang – Obama did actually reach back to his ever-seemingly brief past as a Chicago community organizer and then pol, and get at least some version of health “care” change passed in Congress.
